Wordburglar

Story

Known for hilariously rhyme-bending wordplay, engaging storytelling and a sharp sense of humour, Canadian indie rapper Wordburglar is a consummate performer and a truly original talent. His latest release Rhyme Your Business is a full-course rap-feast of infectious, classic hip-hop loaded with original concepts, lyrical dexterity and absurdly nerdy obscurities that will reward listeners with every new spin.

Wordburglar has been steadily touring and releasing music for over a decade, performing for sold-out crowds everywhere from SXSW to San Diego Comicon to Fringe Festivals and more. A CBC Radio 3 Award winner for Best Lyrics, with five #1 albums on the National Earshot Charts, ‘Burg continues to innovate and create positive, entertaining and nerdy classic hip-hop for audiences across Canada and beyond.

He is also the co-founder and host of the long-running (8 years and counting) Toronto Hip Hop night “The $5 Rap Show,” producer of his own podcast “Weekend At Burgie’s” and has created original music for Mr. D, Trailer Park Boys, FunnyOrDie, Xbox and more.

Wordburglar is currently on a 20-date cross-Canada tour this fall in support of Rhyme Your Business and the new video single “Rental Patient.”
